Making Sense of Faith in God: How Belief Makes Science Possible
Logos Editions are fully connected to your library and Bible study tools.
Overview
Many people’s understanding of the world does not include God. A number of “new atheist” authors—such as Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, and Daniel Dennett—claim that science can explain the universe without any need for the divine. Jonathan Clatworthy observes that this seems to have become the default position in modern Western culture. But a great number of people are prepared to spend time and effort trying to establish some sort of spiritual dimension to their lives. Faced with the false dilemma of either rejecting modern scientific knowledge or all awareness of the divine, they choose from a range of vaguely spiritual practices and ideas, which can be picked up and dropped with minimal commitment.
